But this particular issue also featured an eye-catching giveaway to raise money for GOTV (Get Out the Vote) efforts.
For just $10, readers can purchase a raffle ticket (out of 125 offered) for a chance to win a brand new handgun. Not just any handgun, but a Glock 23
Arizona Republicans surely know just how effective this particular brand of gun can be. After all, it was only eight months ago that Jared Lee Loughner used a Glock 19 in Tucson - the seat of Pima County - to shoot Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in the head. Giffords survived, but six other people, including a nine year old girl and a federal judge, were killed in the same shooting.

Honestly, a hand gun as a prize for donating to a Get Out the Vote effort? The Giffords story aside - this is just highly ridiculous and inappropriate. Factor in the shooting and it's disgusting.
But hey...what better way to ensure that those gun-hating, Right's stealing Liberals don't take part!
